F12002 Stalling in the pits?

I stalled in the pits while racing at a lan parting over the weekend, and the bloody pit crew wouldn't restart my engine! WANKERS! Gerry

Oh Christ don't tell me they havn't fixed this in F12002?! That happened to me in F12001 towards the end of a full length race at Monaco, I was livid. Esp. seeing as you can get the car restarted if you are rolling which is v. dubious for an F1 car, but the one place you should be able to restart a stalled engine ie. the pits you can't! -- Cheers, Robin ................... `o^=o- http://www.oppositelock.freeserve.co.uk - N�rburgring/GPL "Gerry Aitken" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I stalled in the pits while racing at a lan parting over the weekend, > and the bloody pit crew wouldn't restart my engine! > > WANKERS! > > Gerry

OUCH... :-) Eldred -- Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett My .sig file is in the shop for repairs... Remove SPAM-OFF to reply.

I haven't actually tried this myself, but there is a line in the .plr file, under driving aids, that says: Pitcrew Push="1" // When out of fuel in pitlane, allows pitcrew to push car (use throttle and gear selection to direct) I believe 1 is the default value, so you probably had it on, but notice the comment - apparently you have to hit the throttle when they are pushing you to get them to go anywhere.

Didn't Schui stall on the grid a few years back, even with the hand clutch? Jason On Mon, 22 Jul 2002 22:45:21 +0100, "FlightSims.co.uk" <[email hidden]> wrote:

I think hitting the / key or something like that restarts the engine. It's been covered here before...time for google. dave henrie

I tried changing: Locked Pit Cam="1" to: Locked Pit Cam="0" But the pit crew just stood there and did nothing. Great sim with some real bollocks features, imo. Cheers Gerry

Well Google isn't coughing up any more info for me either...two threads that talk about it but no solution...man I musta been on drugs... Anyhow, about the pit crew. You think EA is gonna budget studio time to get a full motion capture done on a pit crew of 227 people and then allow ISI to make it a toggled option?? dave(did I mention I dumped Brittany a few years back???) henrie
